More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
May we live here like strangers and make the world not a house, but an inn, in which we sup and lodge, expecting to be on our journey tomorrow.
Charles Spurgeon
There, poor sinner, take my garment, and put it on you shall stand before God as if you were Christ, and I will stand before God as if I had been the sinner I will suffer in the sinner's stead, and you shall be rewarded for works that you did not do, but which I did for you.
Charles Spurgeon
We must meditate, brothers. These grapes will yield no wine we tread upon it.
Charles Spurgeon
The moment the church of God shall despise the pulpit, God will despise her.
Charles Spurgeon
You need not bring life to the scripture. You should draw life from the scripture.
Charles Spurgeon
Praying without fervency is like hunting with a dead dog.
Charles Spurgeon
This day, my God, I hate sin not because it damns me, but because it has done Thee wrong. To have grieved my God is the worst grief to me.
Charles Spurgeon
Watch constantly against those things which are thought to be no temptations. The most poisonous serpents are found where the sweetest flowers grow. Cleopatra was poisoned by an asp that was brought to her in a basket of fair flowers. Sharp-edged tools, long handled, wound at last.
Charles Spurgeon
Our misery is that we thirst so little for these sublime things, and so much for the mocking trifles of time and space.
Charles Spurgeon
Not that our salvation should be the effect of our work, but our work should be the evidence of our salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
If you rest on the finished work of Jesus you have already the best evidence of your salvation in the world you have God's word for it what more is needed?
Charles Spurgeon
When the time comes for you to die, you need not be afraid, because death cannot separate you from God's love.
Charles Spurgeon
Go forth today, by the help of God's Spirit, vowing and declaring that in life - come poverty, come wealth, in death - come pain or come what may, you are and ever must be the Lord's. For this is written on your heart, 'We love Him because He first loved us.'
Charles Spurgeon
It is not a matter of time so much as a matter of heart if you have the heart to pray, you will find the time.
Charles Spurgeon
When you speak of heaven, let your face light up let it be irradiated by a heavenly gleam let your eyes shine with reflected glory. But when you speak of hell, your ordinary expression will do.
Charles Spurgeon
We are all damaged goods in recovery.
Charles Spurgeon
From the Word of God I gather that damnation is all of man, from top to bottom, and salvation is all of grace, from first to last. He that perishes chooses to perish but he that is saved is saved because God has chosen to save him.
Charles Spurgeon
Earnestness is good it means business. But fanaticism overdoes, and is consequently reactionary.
Charles Spurgeon
If Christ has died for me, I cannot trifle with the evil that killed my best Friend.
Charles Spurgeon
Immanuel, God with us in our nature, in our sorrow, in our lifework, in our punishment, in our grave, and now with us, or rather we with Him, in resurrection, ascension, triumph, and Second Advent splendor.
Charles Spurgeon
